JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure is a name which anime fans know whether they’ve seen the show or not. The cult hit has a reputation thanks to its outlandish fashion and beefy characters that has only grown in recent years. In fact, the show’s latest outing with Golden Wind leveled up the anime to top-tier status, and fans around the world did what they could to honor its cast.
Of course, that meant a slew of fans decided to make JoJo cosplays, and they did them in style. Plenty of Giorno looks can be seen floating around the Internet, but fans are always happy to see his comrades represented in the cosplay game. Thanks to a fan called KNITE, netizens got to see Guido Mista come to life in a cosplay, and it might be the most manga-accurate one yet.

While the costume is very impressive, fans admit they are most impressed by the makeup of this cosplay. Creator Hirohiko Araki is heavyhanded when it comes to inking, and Guido is famous for having some dark lines in the manga. As such, this cosplay uses some dramatic makeup to mirror the aesthetic to great effect.
